^thing like that perplex me. How in the good-god-wizardry are you growing with no filters?!

At one point, I had 2 BRAND NEW 12" Can Fan Filters, and there was a few weeks near end of harvest when I could go outside and you'd think I DIDN'T have ANY filters! :O
only know what works for me. electric glade near closet masks it. my whole building reeks of weed, wafting out from doors everywhere, but its likely from people smoking. that makes things better for me. i don't know what else to say.

i work hard and i keep improving my self. Smoking pot does not make me any less of a person.
And somebody else said:
Wait so because I smoke and grow pot I'm not a respectable, hardworking individual with a PhD?
What you are isn't the issue, it's public perception of what you are, whether you are or not. There is a stigma associated
with cannabis use/production, whether we like it or not, whether true or not. Gateway drug, roots in hell, devil's weed,
hell, even Anslinger et al named it "marijuana" in order to promote racist discrimination against Mexicans, thus making
it an "us versus them" social paradigm.

They named it "weed, grass, pot (cuz poor ppl only have one pot to cook in), boo, dope..." ad nauseum. Half of Americans approve of
Trump and the magats, and those same ppl also approve of the Republican founded and backed DEA. Think they're
ready to be convinced that cannabis is not the least bit harmful? If I were you, and I'm not, I'm me, and I don't risk it, so
neither, in my opinion, should you. Hopefully you can buy a bag on the corner somewhere, where ever you are. The USA is about half
legalized for rec cannabis, and probably 70% legalized for med cannabis. Good luck, whatever you decide to do. If you
grow, send us pix, but remember those pix can be used as evidence. (Just sayin'.)

I maintain my reputation by growing. Lol
growing used to stress me out in thiirty years ive been caught 3 times once a decade, they even try to ruin your reputation by putting
the details of the bust in the local newspaper so every one you know reads about it
now days my 5 year plan is i just want to get to 388 points

you have to really want this

my advice would be move outa the city apartment and go somewhere say an hours drive from the city and dont bring the sister

So, the third time would've been repeat offender act, and you are still in prison?
If not, how many years time did you do each time you got busted? There are ppl in RIU
who tell me they're too smart to get "caught" as you say. We always called it "busted, arrested, popped...".

Not a bad deal. I paid 20k to some sneaky lawyers after getting busted once, growing on/off for a fifteen years, and only seriously for a couple of years. The only time I got was a week of community service working under a park manager that got high as hell and welcomed my green gifts with 'hang out in the sprawling mostly empty park and do whatever you want' attitude instead of cleaning bbq grease garbage bins and picking up after soccer moms wiping their children's asses with napkins and littering the play area. And 1 year of no getting caught with anything informal probation. The best part of the story is that I negotiated my own punishment after realizing the lawyers were the bad guys and not actually doing what they were claiming to do. I want to be there looking into their eyes and reminding them what they are when they die.

I paid 20k
Yeah, i paid with 30 days, and 1 yr probation for sales, to wit, 7 grams of sic. marijuana,
during one of the worst periods in my life, death in family, etc., etc.

That was enough for me to stop entirely (after i smoked up the rest of my 4 oz stash of
Colombian Green) for way over 25 years. Then came legalization. WOOT! :)

Same thing happened to me! On Halloween, as a young teenager, I was out bombing with friends, tp and shaving cream, they caught us and checked my belly bag. I had a clear package of oregano that I forgot was in there from a month or so earlier when some friends and I tried smoking it because we were out of bud. The cop thought he had us, when my mom came to get us at the station she took it and smelled it and threw it out in front of them and threatened to sue them... those were the days..

Yes you can do it.

1) Grow Northern Lights
2) Good Carbon filter/inline fan in tent
3) Another inline fan & carbon filter in room.

Close doors to room when watering. Turn both fans up to max & keep them running. After you close the tent, keep the "room" fan/filter running for another 15 minutes after you zip tent back up. Don't open the door to room until after that 15mins is up. Every odor should be neutralized.


Now on trimming/takedown day. Just make sure you got the flat to yourself for 12 hours. Lock yourself in that room, never open the door until its all hanging up drying in tent. Bring a empty milk jug to pee in lol. Open all the windows. Good to go!

Also carbon filters pull down your airflow so if your fan is rated at say 700m3h you will lose about 15- 20% (if i remember correctly) so if you are running an intake fan you need to take this into consideration.

Don't want to be pushing in more air than is being removed.

With a tent the sides will suck in a little under negative pressure you don't want it to balloon out

Why does it matter if you have positive or negative pressure? I don't see why positive is bad as long as you have air constantly flowing.
